We had the creator of this fine pistol on the boards a while back.  ,but I am not sure when it will become available in the United States.  I would really like one in both 9mm and .40SW, or either.
  From what I recall, its a rotating barrel concept., similar to the Beretta PX4/Cougar, and Sig Mauser M2.
  I really like these kinds of guns, but I hope the distribution in the United States is successful.  Great photo

I guess a BATFink approved version is coming, in .45, with alternate slides and barrels (calibers).

where? also, is it only a .45,   any 9mm or .40SW versions.
I really don't want a rotating barrel in .45

I don't have an idea where it will come to.  The FRAME is for .45, but like the Witness you can get other calibers, 9x19, 9x21, .40 as far as I know.

I'm curious, why do you object to having a rotating barrel on a 45? Are you concerned that the lug will break off?

I don't object to it,  I just think it will be more manageable in a 9mm or .40SW.  
  I really don't know how much prescedent exists for a rotating .45ACP barrel, other than the Sig Mauser M2, but my Mauser is a .40SW.

Beretta makes the Cougar in a 45ACP with the rotating barrel.  It is a mild recoiling gun.

If its mild recoiling in .45ACP,  I can only imagine how manageable this K100 will be in 9 and 40.

Ditto on what Weemsf said. I had a couger in .45 and had to sell it. It was very low recoil for a .45 and mine was reliable with all types of ammo and was accurate. I thought I wanted to sell it to get a 1911 so I could get cheap mags and learned quick that their is realy no such ammo for reliability. Now I am considering getting another for concealed carry. The good point about selling it is that I sold it to a friend who is a Beretta bigot and he had not realy got into .45s. Now he has a .45 that he likes. So some comfort comes out of it. LOL. I would have to see both in person but I think I would take the PX4 over the K100. However that could change.

PX4 should come out this fall and be available to civilians as well and not just for the LEO market.

I do not completely dislike the 100 but it would be a lot more desirable for me if they would do something with the grip and the slide stop. A .45 in the correct price range would be very tempting. If they took witness .45 mags it would be even more tempting for me.

The question still remains, regardless of 9mm, .40SW, or .45ACP,  I have not seen this firearm yet available in the United States. ,but we'll keep an eye out.
